First of all, thanks to all the people who have been regularly or occasionally responding to my rambling blog posts via the comments section, email, Skype, time travel, etc. You're a cool group of people, and I would gush about how great you are if I ever had the chance to talk about the internet in a face-to-face conversation. (I imagine it would go something like this. Stranger on the street: "Oh, I love your hair! Did you get it highlighted?" Me:"No! I stood under a very weird cloud at the beach! Pull up a chair and let me tell you why I love my little corner of the internet!")

Second, delurking is great for the skin. You should try it sometime, shy people.

On a related note, drinking water (instead of pop) has proven to be more effective at making my skin look great than any disgustingly expensive face wash system I have tried. It also cuts down on the number of nosebleeds I wake up to, which is saving oh so many trees from becoming tissues. That leaves (pun not intended) more trees for propping up hammocks, where I can rest while I read on my tree-friendly Nook from Barnes & Noble! I am the Earth's BFF!

The moral of this story is that commenting on blogs is environmentally friendly and/or a cure for acne. The other moral of this story is that I shouldn't put sentences in public when I haven't been sleeping in a long time. The other other moral of this story is that I am going to hate this in the morning.

I have mad skills in penmanship, playing piano, knowing exactly when to use a semicolon, organizing bookshelves, and befriending unfriendly cats.
